## What reviewers found

### MOVA E40 Ultra

- Vacuum Wars (2.92 Vacuum Wars stars): Bought and tested in house against the original P10 Pro Ultra: 88% carpet deep clean against a 77% average, but 47% flattened pet hair pickup, 44% hair tangle, 5 of 24 obstacles avoided and about 1,602 sq ft per charge. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/mova-e40-ultra-vs-p10-pro-ultra/)
- Gizchina.it: Used for several weeks as the main home robot: mapping was quick and accurate, the app stable. In turbo mode on about 60 m2 it could drop to about 20% battery, then it recharges and resumes. Suction on long pile carpet may disappoint. [Source](https://en.gizchina.it/2026/01/recensione-mova-e40-ultra/amp/)
- SmartWorld (Italy): Cleaned 100 m2 in about 1.5 hours on just over 50% battery, climbed 2.2 cm ramps and boosted suction on rugs. Mops sometimes brushed rug edges and the drying cycle is fairly loud. Sample supplied by MOVA. [Source](https://www.smartworld.it/recensioni/mova-e40-ultra)

### MOVA P50 Pro Ultra

- Vacuum Wars (2.71 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 0.71 kPa suction, 17 CFM, 57% carpet sand, 63% to 65% pet hair, 0% hair wrap, dried stain score 111, obstacle score 17 of 24 and about 1,375 sq ft per charge. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/mova-p50-pro-ultra-robot-vacuum-review)
- nextpit (4.5): Picked up 98% of oats and sand on tile and 95% of sand on carpet. No hair in the brush. Battery dropped 16% in 30 minutes at max. Excellent cable detection but bumped table legs several times. [Source](https://www.nextpit.de/tests/mova-p50-pro-ultra-test)
